Would someone please explain to my DH?

Last night he asked me if I'm pregnant again, because I still have some belly. Not acceptable! I told him that it's not okay to ask the woman who had a baby 11 months ago, who still has a belly, and who he sees take BC every day, if she's pregnant again.

And then today we were talking about these zoo/botanical garden aquarium passes I was given for my birthday back in April. April!  We have the opportunity to use them next weekend (it's a 3 hour drive), but there are only 2, and I'm pretty sure my friend intended them to be a get away. But he wants me to buy 2 more and make it a family overnight trip rather than finding someone to watch the older kids. DH will be flying out after this trip and I would have to make the 3 hour drive home with all 3 kids by myself. Somehow I now longer really want to go.

Would someone explain to my DH that he's being a prat?

  • Dear Kaeldrasmommy's DH,

  • I think regardless of when you had a baby, no man should ask a woman is pregnant... cause they can be wrong. Here's a picture a friend of mine shared awhile ago

  • I was asked the same question this week by a student's parent. I just looked at her an said "no I'm just fat bc I stopped BF last month" then she went on to say that I should wear spanks. Yes this happened. I just looked at her and said " nah, Im ok w my body , but thanks for your kind words" Geesh

    What is wrong with people? If I did ask and some lady said "no" I'd be mortified, not giving you advice on what to wear!

  • I had a lady we are close acquaintances with stop me a few weeks ago and said excitedly said "Are you....?"

    My response was "Am I what??" She realized what was about to transpire and said "Oh, wait, never mind" and then walked away. 

    This also happened a few more times that week as well. My period was ridiculously late and I was seriously feeling like crap already...it was the icing on the cake of that week. I agree...WTH is wrong with people!

    And husbands are the worse!! 

    K-mommy: I would just say forget it and find another weekend where you don't have to worry about taking all of the kids home alone.

  • Lol redcamaro, that's great.

    Brighteyes, I showed him that, it made him apologize at least.

    Gina and nwlywed, those stories are much worse than mine. How rude can people get?!

    I'm going to go ahead and do it as a family thing, but I gave DH grief and told him that I'm not going to keep trying to make time for the two of us alone, or as alone as possible, if he's going to keep thwarting my attempts. And I reminded him that he shouldn't tell me how to handle my gifts.

  • Glad he at least apologized after seeing the picture... sorry it's like breaking his arm to have time just the two of you. I know what that's like, I'm hoping to get some one and one time with my DH when my mom gets in town next month.

    Hope that works! And if so, have fun!

  • On second thought, maybe you should just tell him you're pregnant everytime he asks. That will surely get him to stop asking!

  • Ha! My DH needs to lose about 15 pounds, and I need to lose about 10. So we are doing the 30 Day Shred together. I find it better to involve him in DOING something with me, then to harp and argue back and forth. And actually, we've been having a lot of fun doing it together! But, yeah, if he ever asked me if I was pregnant, knowing full well I am not, there would be Trouble in Paradise.
